By the way Hol - if you want a job on the edge of
biotech/robotics/engineering - I think Synthego is also still hiring
(the only thing that sucks is that they're down in the valley).
Otherwise let's hack :)<br>
<br>
First meet up I'll set up for us is an open source PCR hack night!<br>

__pbrmquotes="true" class="__pbConvBody"><div>Hi folks,<br><br>Just
joined the list, primarily as a lurker. I am perpetually spread thin on
project bandwidth but want to be in touch with the bio community in
order to collaborate where there are areas of overlap. My background is
in engineering - civil and environmental engineering in school, now
doing alot of pavement, geotechnical, and drainage/dewatering design.
In my own time I've taken a big technical interest in process control,
mainly in hydroponics, environmental control (like HVAC), and beer
brewing. All the electronic and mechanical stuff is self-taught so
there's been alot of trial and error on my path, but maybe not an order
of magnitude more than if I had learned it in school.<br><br>I am
interested in adding biological elements into designs, and so far have
just been shooting from the hip with mixed results. Some applications
of interest to me are algae biofuel processors, automatic
plant/animal/fungus environmental homeostasis systems, compact
grey/blackwater treatment units, closed-loop irrigation with specialized
bacterial bioreactor elements, and anything having to do with microbial
action to beneficiate rock/sand/spacedust.<br><br>I could be of
assistance on the DIY PCR project as there is some technical overlap on
temperature control and driving peltier elements. Also would be
interested in developing hardware and control systems for economical
mass production of select organisms.<br><br>Looking forward to hacking
with y'all!<br>Hol<br>_______________________________________________<br>Biohackers
